Water fall with moss

Hi I'm thinking of adding a waterfall to my 112 cube. I got the idea from the volcano tank. So I want a few cliffs and turn them into water falls with small water pump. I also want to add plants and I need suggestions plz. I like moss and mangroves but I don't really know of any types of species that would work in saltwater since I'm a newbie.
 
Best bet for 'moss' would probably be enteromorpha or a type of hair algae. One note on a tank like that though, for saltwater it would be a very rough setup to maintain. Salt creep everywhere from the waterfalls, you would be constantly cleaning it off of everything.
 
Check out the algae scrubber threads, maybe you could incorporate some type of scrubber as the waterfall?
 
Yea, if you used a screen, and the bottom of the screen went into water, the screen would fill will algae and you'd have a green/brown waterfall.
